What Book should I start with, with Tamora Prince? In 22 days I'm heading back to the Library and I know they have some of her stuff but I didn't know where to start, any suggestions?
Why not start at the beginning? I recommend the first book of the Song of the Lioness series, "Alanna: The First Adventure." Then you can move on to the next three: "In the Hand of the Goddess," "The Woman Who Rides Like a Man," and "Lioness Rampant." The next series is the Immortals quartet, with Daine, then the Protector of the Small quartet. Then, if you want to keep going, read Trickster's Choice and Trickster's Queen. She has other books, set in another world, with other characters, but I never really got into those ones. You might though. She is a good writer. The books are short, so I recommend you get more than one at a time.


Yeah, I think it's best to read them in order. That's what I did, and I think it helped them make sense.

Those are the best! My sister accidentally read Protector of the Small before Immortals, and was way confused.

he's gifted and strong, and will not let Yukino push him around! and he's a kendo champion.

ya know, maybe we should add images to this topic?

Mmmm. Adding the marquis de Carabas and Richard Mayhew (Neverwhere) and Dream of the Endless (The Sandman). Come to think of it, Nealan of Queenscove (Protector of the Small) is adorable. I had quite a crush on him when I was younger...

Oooh! There are many, many cool people there. I agree about the coolness of Pyrgus, Artemis, Balthier, Sora, and Riku. We like many of the same people. You must be very cool. I also like Roxas. He's so sweet. heart

Oh, yeah, I now declare that any hot fantasy character named Will is my favorite. I love the name Will. The only trouble is finding one... Any help?

True dat. Thanks for sharing! I found this icon once, with a picture of him that said "Exceptionally pretty when wet". Very true.

I'm desperately trying to come up with other Will's. I know they exist, but they're stubbornly avoiding me right now. mad

Has anyone else read Tad Williams' Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn trilogy? You know, the ridiculously massive books that probably ate months of your life if you read them? Well, I thought they sort of sucked. I mean, two eight-hundred-page paperbacks followed by a 1,000+ (or was it closer to 2,000...) page hardcover. Too damn long.

However, I must add Prince Joshua Lackhand to this list. He's awesomely conflicted and deep, and was by far the only reason I made it anywhere in those books.
